config NET_TCP
bool "TCP/IP Networking"
default n
select NET_READAHEAD if !NET_TCP_NO_STACK
---help---
Enable or disable TCP networking support.
config NET_TCP_NO_STACK
bool "Disable TCP/IP Stack"
default n
select NET_TCP
---help---
Build without TCP/IP stack even if TCP networking support enabled.
if NET_TCP && !NET_TCP_NO_STACK
config NET_TCP_DELAYED_ACK
bool "TCP/IP Delayed ACK"
default n
---help---
RFC 1122: A host that is receiving a stream of TCP data segments
can increase efficiency in both the Internet and the hosts
by sending fewer than one ACK (acknowledgment) segment per data
segment received; this is known as a "delayed ACK".
TCP should implement a delayed ACK, but an ACK should not be
excessively delayed; in particular, the delay MUST be less than
0.5 seconds, and in a stream of full-sized segments there should
be an ACK for at least every second segments.
config NET_TCP_KEEPALIVE
bool "TCP/IP Keep-alive support"
default n
select NET_TCPPROTO_OPTIONS
---help---
Enable support for the SO_KEEPALIVE socket option
config NET_TCPURGDATA
bool "Urgent data"
default n
---help---
Determines if support for TCP urgent data notification should be
compiled in. Urgent data (out-of-band data) is a rarely used TCP feature
that is very seldom would be required.
config NET_TCP_CONNS
int "Number of TCP/IP connections"
default 8
---help---
Maximum number of TCP/IP connections (all tasks)
config NET_TCP_NPOLLWAITERS
int "Number of TCP poll waiters"
default 1
config NET_TCP_RTO
int "RTO of TCP/IP connections"
default 3
---help---
RTO of TCP/IP connections (all tasks)
config NET_TCP_WAIT_TIMEOUT
int "TIME_WAIT Length of TCP/IP connections"
default 120
---help---
TIME_WAIT Length of TCP/IP connections (all tasks). In units
of seconds.
config NET_MAX_LISTENPORTS
int "Number of listening ports"
default 20
---help---
Maximum number of listening TCP/IP ports (all tasks). Default: 20
config NET_TCP_FAST_RETRANSMIT
bool "Enable the Fast Retransmit algorithm"
default y
---help---
RFC2001:
3. Fast Retransmit
Modifications to the congestion avoidance algorithm were proposed in
1990 [3]. Before describing the change, realize that TCP may
generate an immediate acknowledgment (a duplicate ACK) when an out-
of-order segment is received (Section 4.2.2.21 of [1], with a note
that one reason for doing so was for the experimental fast-
retransmit algorithm). This duplicate ACK should not be delayed.
The purpose of this duplicate ACK is to let the other end know that a
segment was received out of order, and to tell it what sequence
number is expected.
Since TCP does not know whether a duplicate ACK is caused by a lost
segment or just a reordering of segments, it waits for a small number
of duplicate ACKs to be received. It is assumed that if there is
just a reordering of the segments, there will be only one or two
duplicate ACKs before the reordered segment is processed, which will
then generate a new ACK. If three or more duplicate ACKs are
received in a row, it is a strong indication that a segment has been
lost. TCP then performs a retransmission of what appears to be the
missing segment, without waiting for a retransmission timer to
expire.
config NET_TCP_WINDOW_SCALE
bool "Enable TCP/IP Window Scale Option"
default n
---help---
RFC1323:
2. TCP WINDOW SCALE OPTION
The window scale extension expands the definition of the TCP
window to 32 bits and then uses a scale factor to carry this 32-
bit value in the 16-bit Window field of the TCP header (SEG.WND in
RFC-793).
if NET_TCP_WINDOW_SCALE
config NET_TCP_WINDOW_SCALE_FACTOR
int "TCP/IP Window Scale Factor"
default 0
---help---
This is the default value for window scale factor.
endif # NET_TCP_WINDOW_SCALE
config NET_TCP_NOTIFIER
bool "Support TCP notifications"
default n
depends on SCHED_WORKQUEUE
select WQUEUE_NOTIFIER
---help---
Enable building of TCP notifier logic that will execute a worker
function on the low priority work queue when read-ahead data
is available or when a TCP connection is lost. This is is a general
purpose notifier, but was developed specifically to support poll()
logic where the poll must wait for these events.
config NET_TCP_WRITE_BUFFERS
bool "Enable TCP/IP write buffering"
default n
select NET_WRITE_BUFFERS
---help---
Write buffers allows buffering of ongoing TCP/IP packets, providing
for higher performance, streamed output.
You might want to disable TCP/IP write buffering on a highly memory
memory constrained system where there are no performance issues.
if NET_TCP_WRITE_BUFFERS
config NET_TCP_NWRBCHAINS
int "Number of pre-allocated I/O buffer chain heads"
default 8
---help---
These tiny nodes are used as "containers" to support queuing of
TCP write buffers. This setting will limit the number of TCP write
operations that can be "in-flight" at any give time. So a good
choice for this value would be the same as the maximum number of
TCP connections.
config NET_TCP_WRBUFFER_DEBUG
bool "Force write buffer debug"
default n
depends on DEBUG_FEATURES
select IOB_DEBUG
---help---
This option will force debug output from TCP write buffer logic,
even without network debug output. This is not normally something
that would want to do but is convenient if you are debugging the
write buffer logic and do not want to get overloaded with other
network-related debug output.
config NET_TCP_WRBUFFER_DUMP
bool "Force write buffer dump"
default n
depends on DEBUG_NET || NET_TCP_WRBUFFER_DEBUG
select IOB_DEBUG
---help---
Dump the contents of the write buffers. You do not want to do this
unless you really want to analyze the write buffer transfers in
detail.
endif # NET_TCP_WRITE_BUFFERS
config NET_TCPBACKLOG
bool "TCP/IP backlog support"
default n
---help---
Incoming connections pend in a backlog until accept() is called.
The size of the backlog is selected when listen() is called.
if NET_TCPBACKLOG
config NET_TCPBACKLOG_CONNS
int "TCP backlog conns threshold"
default 8
---help---
Maximum number of TCP backlog connections (all tasks).
endif # NET_TCPBACKLOG
config NET_SENDFILE
bool "Optimized network sendfile()"
default n
---help---
Support larger, higher performance sendfile() for transferring
files out a TCP connection.
